Do you need self-care, support, and help navigating your mental health alongside political activism? Are you experiencing fear and stress related to the US political situation? I hear you and understand your struggles. I am a Clinical Psychologist and enjoy working with a wide variety of patients from diverse backgrounds, finding that flexibility is the key to success. I like to collaborate with patients to identify problems, set goals, create treatment plans, and evaluate progress from session to session and I use a somewhat eclectic approach to meet each person where they are.
I am trained in several evidence-based treatments for PTSD, psychodynamic and interpersonal psychotherapy, and often utilize problem-solving, cognitive behavioral, and behavioral techniques as well. I received my Psy.D. from The George Washington University in Washington D.C. and additionally completed an MSCP in Clinical Psychopharmacology.
